Bitcoin Forum

Bitcoin is in, it is celebrated, it is rehabilitated... The Times, the President and so on. Everybody says that it is not scam, everybody assures that it is a good thing.
All this means that the risk level on Bitcoin as well as altcoins is lower than ever before. And the prices of altcoins are moderate, in fact they have not increased remarkably relative to previous years.... Does it mean that it is right time to buy or that this right time is near ? (I do not suggest to buy BTC with 100 000 USD !)

The only important thing is the risk/reward ratio.

And this is where a strategy that doesn't care whether the price of bitcoin is at  100 000 USD or less comes it. You may have read about it but for the sake of the OP, I will repeat it - it is the dollar cost averaging strategy. That is it. You buy steadily, never following the FUD, the price or other market sentiments but based on your goal, weekly, monthly or which ever way you choose to buy it. And it can be automated or manually controlled by you.

any time is the right time to buy bitcoin if you see from the historical chart that BTC always sets a new record of ATH every bullish cycle, you can be buying at the top and you'd still profit if you're patience enough but as mentioned by other people, just do DCA if you're confused. even buying above $100k is fine if you just keep DCA-ing until price increase exponentially from your cost average and you can already realize your profit.

or if you're really care about risk/reward ratio, then just wait until bearish cycle comes in. it's as easy as that.

We here absolutely assure that it is a good thing but we can't classify that everyone is rejoicing and is also with us. There are still some people that tells that bitcoin is a scam because of their bad experience towards it.

They've been a victim of a scam that used Bitcoin.

The comparison of Bitcoin and altcoins for the risk that they bear is vague. Both are composed of different risk level and I think Bitcoin is the one that has less of it.

Many alts have significantly increased in their prices and if that's what you think that it's not a good time to buy, some might think that it's still fine if they DCA.

It's really not about what these people say, the coin BTC has already made a name and built that trust and reputation for itself even before these people could say anything supportive about it. Still same people that criticise it to be scam years back are now the ones embracing it as a financial instrument to rely on.

You can't compare the risk level of bitcoin to altcoins.  And it's worthy to know that bitcoin is different from altcoin, don't confuse one for another.

Just as yesterday was, today is still a right time to buy bitcoin, you could either buy in lump-sum or DCA method. You risk it procrastinating and not buying right now despite the price.

There's no right or wrong time when it comes to buying Bitcoin. It will all comes down to the risk/reward.

Everybody assures that it's a good thing? How about those who lost their money investing into it? How about those who got scammed because of Bitcoin? Can you tell to them that Bitcoin's still a good thing despite of what happened to them? Also, as much as I want to say that there's nobody who thinks that Bitcoin's a scam, there are still some out there that believes that it is, and probably most of them are those uneducated investors who just invested in Bitcoin, and lost money for various reasons (scams, hacks, etc.) The risk level of Bitcoin might be lower, but it isn't as safe as other asset classes out there and that's because of its volatility. As for altcoins, those top ones are safer than those who are at the bottom. 

You can try to buy today now that Bitcoin's lower than $100,000 since you suggested not to buy at $100,000 or above.

It is Bitcoin that is assured as a good investment to make for the future. For altcoins, you don't have to build your trust in them because their future profits are not always guaranteed.

Bitcoin has a lower risk, while altcoins have a high risk. Hacks can happen on altcoins and it affects their prices. Hardly that Bitcoin gets hacked. Bitcoin is a secured investment that nations make.

The right time to invest in altcoins is when you have made up your mind to have a risk of investment in them, by having a diversified investment

People say that the current price of $100K is already too high but he won't know in the future bitcoin can be more than $200K, if there are still doubts then don't buy let alone ask about investing too early now.

Altcoins fall more severely when the market is experiencing a correction and this is sometimes difficult to recover but bitcoin can get back to the initial price ($100K) even if there is a slight decline, but rest assured bitcoin will be more than $150K.

The right time is always today. Though I guess if you're looking to invest in it then it depends on what time frame you're looking for. I don't believe you need all these bs about it being celebrated and whatnot anyway   if you're only investing a short few months. Heck, you'd want the market to be more volatile. More volatility means more chances for you to profit anyway! If you were holding in the long term then it's not necessarily bad that there's events like these, but not necessarily important as well imo. I mean it doesn't need such proof, it has and always has been for the past decade stayed as what we know it after all.

Never make yourself not to think about having that less risk because when we do speak into this aspect then this isnt something that you do make yourself that being confident about it. I do have the question for you. How you do consider out that the current price are the lowest price for now? Why not buying up $100k price per Bitcoin?  We cant really be able to deny that when it comes to recognition and adoption then cryptocurrencies is making some different in comparing into those previous years but on which of course this isnt that we can be that confident on trying out to invest. The golden rule on here is that never invest into the amount on which you cant afford to lose on which this will be always the best rule so that you wont be finding yourself having that panic whenever your investment do goes south. It will really be that up to you on how you would be able to handle things up accordingly.

If you realize that Bitcoin is a good digital currency and is useful for the future, of course buying it doesn't have to wait for the price of $80k, $90k or $100k because every purchase is the right time to do it. If you think Bitcoin can be profitable because the price will go up and continue to go up in a certain period of time, do it by buying when the price is cheap. The interpretation of the word cheap here also varies from one party to another.

There is no time that is not right for investing in bitcoin as long as you have the discretionary income and you are not  investing for short-term profits. It is only traders that are always timing the market to know when to invest and when not to invest . Talking about shitcoins, I would never advise any one to invest in shitcoins because the risk of one losing money is very high and also about investing 100k at once to me is not a good idea, we have different methods of accumulating bitcoin and I would always advise newbie to start with the dca strategy which gives one the opportunity of accumulating bitcoin at regular intervals, with this strategy you don't need to put in 100k at once you can split into different parts. You can decide to start with as little as $10.

For someone who hasn't been to crypto or stock market and they just learn about cryptocurrencies, its a bit too late. These people will now just be looking at Gold while it hasn't reach $5000 yet. But they will also find out Gold is not easy to trade. And the Physical gold is not easy to sell.

They'd be left with few options which one could be the memecoins. Or they will just mine PI since its easy to mine it with phones. Just my thoughts,

I think I'll say, there's never a time too late to buy any crypto currency assets. This is the period where a buying strategy has to be put in place. If one is buying using savings made from the real world, to grow or accumulate more crypto currency, a strategy will need to be implemented. IMO, bi-weekly purchase, depending on ones income, will be of good yield after a period of time.

For me, I still prefer to accumulate in fractions more Bitcoin, as the market is still seeing some consolidation and lows.

You can buy Bitcoin now and then make some profit after you sell in Q4 or when you feel Bitcoin price was too high.

You can also buy Bitcoin now and keep accumulating until the next super cycle, you will earn a good amount of money.

So, any option is good.

There's nothing wrong for someone who want to invest $100K in Bitcoin, it's only wrong if you force yourself to sell anything in order to invest as much as possible or you take a loan by thinking you will earn more and use the profit to cover the interest.

If you calculation of how and when it’s safe to buy bitcoin is done through this which you have mentioned above then you might to some extent mislead yourself, where you put so much trust on government officials with or without them Bitcoin have proven to be worth buying and everytime is the best time to buy it.

The risk level I see you are rating it base on government support if you use that strategy you might fall victim to government owned and promoted scam tokens like the one done by two country president recently, which all resulted to pump and dump for the Altcoin.

eh - you are comparing the risk level of Altcoins to that of Bitcoin as in they are the same?

Risk level of Bitcoin has diminished for sure over the last 12 months thats for sure based
on various acceptances and government sound bites but I wouldnt say the same for Altcoins.

They remain to me a sort of "pot luck" in terms of "investment" and I dont believe you can
Invest in them, its pure speculation and hope that you pick the one that goes parabolic
for 24 hours and you get a chance to sell at the high.

I would rather own a fraction of Bitcoin than a quantity in whole of $hitcoins ^{bar LTC & XMR}

You can buy Bitcoin at any time. You may think that the price of Bitcoin has increased a lot and may not increase. But we are optimistic that it will reach $ 150,000 by the middle of this year or the end of this year. We are not sure but we are optimistic that it will reach. Because the price of Bitcoin is estimated according to the demand. If you look at the past few years, you will not be able to understand.

You can buy Bitcoin at any time by adopting the DCA method. By adopting the DCA method, you can reach your goal very easily.

Overall the holding time should always be long term if you are looking to succeed no matter what happens in the short term. If you are pondering whether to buy on a short term time frame, you will always be waiting for it to go cheaper, or will always be stressed with general volatility. My suggestion is to not worry too much about the price and think more about what you can afford to hold over a long time frame (4 years plus) as this has not failed anyone since bitcoin began. As for altcoins, they're a different game. Unless you are a good researcher and trader who is able to stay on top of changes within a project and read between the lines/filter out the noise, it's a high risk high reward game as you said. I wouldn't call Bitcoin the same game if Bitcoin continues to remain secure in the long run.

I understand that you are assuming like bitcoin is currently lower than 100k levels hence the risks are reduced and you consider the current prices are right time to enter. All I like to mention here is, you need to study about the fundamentals of bitcoin and its probable upside potential. This way some people believe that bitcoin may touch 1M level this year whereas some people speculate about 150k or 200k level for the same time span. In my opinion, in long run even 10M also possible but for next year or for next 2 years, I am with fingers crossed. So, it may be early or right time to buy bitcoin (not whole cryptocurrencies) with respect to how long that you are planning to hold.

This way, you may miss the upcoming bullish market (if any). This is the reason, DCA may help you better than waiting and then all-in-at-once.

There is no need to think too much about when is the best time to buy bitcoin—anytime is best—what matters is that the sooner you buy, the better. People are too busy thinking about when they should buy, and forget the fact that if they hold for the long term, it is the same. Determining the goal and focus of long-term investment is important to be able to secure profits with more certainty, while volatility is just noise, one should not be too bothered by it, but understanding it is also necessary to not take the wrong step by selling when they are at a loss.

Learn about BTC.
Buy it.
Hodl.
Be happy  ;)

This is quite short. But that is enough to be justified.
Learn all the advantages of Bitcoin, including the opposite of it, then hold.
In how to store, this must also be learned so that it is not wrong because it stores well and correctly is also a very important thing for the long -term hold process.

There is not much to think about, the market is always open, traders should be the ones timing the market but as an investor your only job is to buy Bitcoin and hold, secure your investment and grow it further, the market is not ending soon, the more Bitcoin held the better the profits for those who purchase early will receive the bigger profits by the time the market begins to flow in profits. No loss in Bitcoin investment as long you don't sell early, the loss is limited to only if you avoid unnecessary pressure when volatility happens.

You are in the wrong section to ask about alt coins, general advice given here is dont do it and definitely buy alt coins as your first entry to crypto.  Do some more reading and answer that question yourself per that particular blockchain.

In this section its Bitcoin only and at one point I think some wanted all alternatives removed though I like the innovation myself its very good advice to stick with BTC for all your questions and answers now and going forward.

The simple answer on timing if you were querying would be to enter a position regularly, so once a month would be a fair take.  Pay attention, read in between buys but dont be swayed too much by all the chaos that might go on as thats normal.
   The last big exchange I can remember blowing up was fair timing to buy so long as you mean to buy and hold not sell for ideally years, this is the correct time frame its not a horse race :P

Yeah, there are little things to go into the details of each aspect we said about, but it all boils down to having proper knowledge about BTC and how to store it securely.

It should be that simple to buy BTC without the need to ask when to buy...
If you study bitcoin technicals then it's too difficult... even I don't understand it.
Storing BTC coins in a cold wallet is enough, it is safer to avoid storing on exchanges because it is prone to your account being locked when the exchange faces problems.

I will not say is too early or too late to buy Bitcoin right, but i will advise to buy the dip and hold  from now since Bitcoin is  volatility and we don't know when exactly when Bitcoin will increase in the market and many investors will be happy because they have already invested on Bitcoin, if you this picture below, you we see that Bitcoin is not stable.

But you don't need to have $100,000 before you can invest in bitcoin. You can buy bitcoin with any amount you have, so if you can't afford to buy 1 bitcoin at a time, you can buy it gradually until you get to your desired amount of stash in your portfolio. Mind you it's best to invest in bitcoin where the risk are minimal than investing in altcoins that can easily get rug pulled at anytime. As a beginner it's best to stick with bitcoin and stay clear off shitcoins because you will only end up getting hurt. Most of these altcoins you are thinking hasn't gone up, will never go up again. Most of them are gradually dying off and you be there thinking it will go up anytime soon. You will realise this probably when you have invested in them, and other investors who has been there for long, will use your funds as exit liquidity. Go for bitcoin and invest gradually using the DCA method.

It's that easy for those who already know like people who have long wrestled with Bitcoin from year to year.
Bitcoin technical matters are high level knowledge so that only a few are able to understand it.
So knowledge about the wallet is an inseparable part of security.

Agree.
But -5% is not a dip in the crypto world.
It is so volatile, therefore dip that is important starts from 3-fold price decrease (or -66%).

Considering how we have moved from lower to higher, every single time, I would say it is the perfect time to buy bitcoin right now. I do not have any money unfortunately, and all the money I have goes back to paying my debt, but if I had any money then I would buy bitcoin with all I have, without a doubt.

In the near future, I do hope to make that a reality, but then maybe I would be too late, but looking at how the price is discounted right now, if anyone have any money that they can spare then I would highly advise getting bitcoin. Don't put money into it that you need, don't be stupid like me, always put money that you can spare, that would be a lot better and it would give you a greater return without a doubt.

To me everytime is the right time to buy because you tend not to know when the dip is but buying earlier would do you the good of having better opportunities of being profitable as time goes on. It's not early to buy but it's necessary to buy and hodl cause looking at the changing rate of price that is affecting the markets, such priveledge shouldn't be joked with moreso I think one need to understand how the markets goes to know when it's right to buy and when not to.

JaanusRaim, you don’t need to wait until bitcoin dip down to 30% before you make the move of buying, if that’s where you are going to consider it to be dip enough, because $70k from your definition of dip is not enough drop to be considered dip, some can classify any price which is below the ATH to be a dip for them even if it’s not technically so, you can chose when it’s the best time for you to buy but that time when the market is read is a time to go in and buy cheap instead of waiting for more drop to happen.

In the history of bitcoin its always been right to buy bitcoin.  Excluding hit the highs on sells and lows on buys in each cycle people have always been in the green if you bought and held.  Depending on entry price would be by how much.  But dont kid yourself crypto has much more room to grow.

Just do DCA and be a long term holder and you will be good. I'm not  really sure about the risk/ratio reward. I mean you might have seen that in every 4 year cycle, the price will go on a huge run and it will have a new all time high. It never fail us so far and that pattern continue to exists.

And we have seen the price did go down hard from a new all time high of $109,000 to $84,000, so that is a huge 15% discount for you and for others to buy at this current price. I know that you talk about altcoins as you don't want to buy expensive Bitcoin, but still though as I presented to you, Bitcoin is a better choice, it might be expensive, but if you look at it's past historical logs, it is only the best option for you specially if you are going to look at the bigger picture.

It's a good thing and should be celebrated but nevertheless it's never late to buy cryptocurrency, to be on guard it's even preferable to buy on time usually when the markets price is down abit but looking at the up and down rate most people are scared of buying cause they don't want to be in total loss. For the risk aspect you can't find any investment or business that doesn't involve risk's and so you must be very tactical and strategic in learning how to understand how the markets goes so then you can buy at any rate you wish.

If you look around, you will see that everyone is busy buying Bitcoin. If everyone is busy buying Bitcoin and there is no hesitation in making any investment due to the price of Bitcoin, then why should we be so hesitant to invest in Bitcoin. If there is a lot of hesitation about the price of Bitcoin, then there are some strategies, one of which is to continue investing using the DCA method. If you can continue investing by applying the DCA method, then you will not have to worry about the price of Bitcoin. But the main thing is to hold on to Bitcoin. You can never be in a hurry or impatient while investing in Bitcoin. If you can hold on to it for a long time with patience, then you can definitely achieve success in investment.

Buying bitcoin right now could be something that could change our life, and see what bull period is all about. We are going to go into bull period, which will end with bitcoin probably peaking at somewhere between 150k and 200k, which would be awesome and if we can do this then we are going to benefit from it like crazy, I know that it is not that common at the moment but that doesn't mean that we are going to get it made that quickly, just because we are seeing this changing, doesn't mean that we are going to see the market staying low, it will rise up a lot and it will make profit for everyone.

This is why, we are at the perfect timing of bitcoin investment, everyone should be doing it without a doubt and not have any potential hassles.

it's the classic case of people thinking something overvalued because they're not looking at the potential. while in reality, give it enough time, it will grow a lot much better than most of stocks in the market, bitcoin is a beast on its own when it comes to capital growth.
$100k still make sense to buy but with prerequisites of long term holding, for people who DCA, they won't care, but for people who maybe trying to find the best entry, current price is already good enough, if turns out bitcoin is preparing for the next bullrun again we can be sure that we won't be seeing bitcoin priced at $80k just like we won't be seeing bitcoin priced at $49k like back then.

Who told you that all the presidents of the world believe that Bitcoin is not a scam? it's few presidents that trust Bitcoin is not a scam coin and it will never going to be scam coin to investors. let me use my country as an example, our government don't trust Bitcoin and if you are caught with Bitcoin transactions link to your bank account, immediately your account will be block for further investigation to know if you are part of those leaders stealing government funds through Bitcoin. They have accused Bitcoin be the tools kidnappers and arm robbery are using to steal funds from people that fall victim to them which is not true but some governments don't believe that Bitcoin is not a scam.

Buying Bitcoin now or later will depend on your research. You can not just follow what others suggest to you without research furthermore. Investing in Bitcoin or other things will need responsibility of your funds so you must gather as much info as you can. Before you really know what is Bitcoin, you don't have to rush to invest in Bitcoin because you will have much time to do that.

All you need to do is understand how Bitcoin investment works and how you can manage yourself with the price fluctuations. If you can handle that, you will good to start. You can use DCA methods to start investing in Bitcoin.

The risk ratio for altcoins never changes, they're not lower than Bitcoin ever but they're riskier than it.

Many of them didn't moved and I agree but many of them have moved a lot for this bull run and there's gotta be more to come for most of them.

Every time that there is a crash that happens in the market, a lot of speculations always is about nearing to its end. We've heard that a lot but the market remains stronger than ever and so as Bitcoin. Soon, people would say "I should have bought at $100k" but I don't know for how many years it shall come.

I think we all know that the crypto market is famous for its volatility. No one can predict with certainty when prices will fall or rise. Therefore, buying early can provide an advantage if prices increase in the future. Investors who already have experience are usually better able to manage their emotions when facing price changes. They are not influenced by fear or panic to sell their assets, on the contrary, they will never delay in accumulating or adding as many assets as they can.

In my opinion, if we continuously delay the price we want, we will never have many assets that are up for grabs in this world, don't feel expensive at the current price, but look at the journey of bitcoin in 5 or 10 years, the value of bitcoin will soar very high.

If buying for trading purposes, it is necessary for someone to see the market conditions so that he can determine a more appropriate time to buy and enter the market for that. But for some people who make purchases for other purposes such as long-term investment, of course they don't need to see that because they can buy it immediately without having to wait for market conditions to change. So each person who buys also has a different goal so we also need to see their basic goals so that the ideas we give and they implement can be more suitable.

It may be true, buying Bitcoin or investing in other crypto assets should not be done in a hurry. In-depth research and a good understanding of how Bitcoin works are essential so that we do not get caught up in decisions based only on incomplete information or other people's advice. A careful and considered approach is very necessary when investing in Bitcoin. But if we think too much it will waste time and miss many opportunities. As you said, using the DCA method to start investing in bitcoin is the right choice. The DCA method is very helpful in reducing the impact of price fluctuations. With the DCA method, we can invest consistently without worrying too much about when the Bitcoin price is high or low.

even when you use DCA to invest in Bitcoin, you still need an understanding. when a beginner wants to invest in Bitcoin, then they must know too. maybe just as a basis, at least to avoid losses in implementing the investment.
some beginners must have confusion in determining the right time to enter to buy. DCA may be a common investment strategy and can be applied by beginners. but before doing so, beginners must still learn first, do not just follow other people's advice.

And that is why it is called as predicting because there is no guarantees. Given that one can only predict, I won't be confident about buying early. I know some coins like BTC are already proven but I'm not referring to them, rather I'm only referring on our topic here.

That sounds like they are perfect anymore but I still believe on the saying that nothing is perfect in this world, therefore there would be times that they will still experience those you said there, though maybe not really in a negative way sometimes, like for example they will get fear of something so they will panic sell and still be able to make a profit and if they don't do this, they might delayed on making a profit or they won't make anything at all.

Is it too early to buy cryptocurrency? In my own opinion It is never too early or too late to buy Bitcoin if you start now, but the decision is yours to take as I do not know how ready you are to invest in Bitcoin. Before you make any decisions I suggest you check yourself to know how ready you are, your financial situation and how comfortable you feel about the potential risks and reward of Bitcoin. is this the right time to buy? I think that the right time to buy is when you have done your research as No one can actually predict the market with certainty how Bitcoin works.

to be honest, I don't even think doing DCA with bitcoin even require thorough understanding of how things works, I've seen plenty of people doing DCA without knowing what even bitcoin is and they're already making profit.
the important thing here to know is just that BTC have bullish cycle and they just need to wait for another bullish cycle because speaking from data bitcoin price always multiplty over the course of every cycle.
it's really easy to do, doesn't really need that much knowledge either.
it's different if you are trading though, only then you'd need to understand fundamental, news and so on.

Everyone must decide for themselves the right time to buy assets like Bitcoin and don't let others influence them in this matter so that they make mistakes that result in losses for themselves and first looking at the financial condition before deciding to buy the asset is very important so that we can apply a strategy according to our abilities to be able to achieve the targets we want and if you already know that no one can predict the market accurately, it would be better for you to understand yourself so that you can take advantage of every opportunity you have to prepare the assets you collect for your future.

In the crypto market there is no such thing as too early to buy bitcoin? If you have an idea to buy bitcoin for investment is a positive thought for the future asset period. According to my understanding in crypto trading there are many things to learn before starting it considering the price is too active with great risk then you must first learn what you are going to do. The main strategy in starting or buying bitcoin must have a desire to understand the future potential and the risks that will occur, your readiness is needed so to start buying bitcoin for me this good idea will be the most important future asset do not ask others focus on your principles because the price of bitcoin cannot be guessed correctly.

yea the general consensus is that it is still early to get into Bitcoin.

The OP is non sensical to me, everything is wrong about it. If you are wanting
to get into Bitcoin and you know the ATH was ~ $106k and Bitcoin is currently
on sale at $85k why would you not buy now?

And if you had $100,000 why wouldnt you put the whole lot in? whats the
alternative? keep it in the bank?

Even the thread title is wrong "is it too early?"

Its never too early - never

It looks pretty easy because DCA only requires gradual purchases, but basic knowledge is needed to determine where you're going to start and how much to use for the first, second, and so on.

This will be related to the money management used, so that DCA can be maximized and knowing technical analysis also helps to determine at what price you have to enter or maybe only enter at a predetermined time consistently without looking at the price.

I think it is not right to make a hasty decision when buying cryptocurrency because the cryptocurrency market is very volatile and immediate decisions can be wrong. Bitcoin is a good investment but it requires in depth research before investing you should research thoroughly consider the risks and make a long term plan. You need to know how bitcoin works and the market movements if the price drops it is not possible to get the right profit if you do not have the right time to invest and the long term. If you want to enter the market early and make a profit it can be risky because sometimes the price can change quickly.

Cryptocurrency is on the verge of growth and at such anytime is preferable to buy, Bitcoin prices changes in respect to time and for you to know that you'll need to understand how the markets goes,and as well there's always a high risks involved and you can start buying with a more affordable amounts that you can afford because investing in Bitcoin is a huge decision and any default mistakes can alter the outcome.

Making investments with self-awareness is the best thing, because losses or profits feel lighter than through the influence of other people.

It has also been repeatedly discussed that it is never too late to invest in crypto, especially bitcoin, because the market is very lively, there are also many methods that can be used to increase profit potential, such as buying bitcoin via DCA or buying the dip. Always remember that the cryptocurrency market will be increasingly and always profitable in the future, don't be late to buy and invest.

Whether you are a trader or a long-term investor, it is still necessary to consider the market position before buying. The cheaper you get, the bigger the chances of earning.In trading, traders only get a good profit during bull season but have difficulties during bear season. But investors get their timing during a bear season, not during a bull market.

Timing is only our chance to make a good profit in the crypto space. We used to take advantage of the volatile situation, and if we were doing any of the two blindly, I couldn't think of us to survive and succeed.

Bitcoin has lost almost 15% of its price in a week - so do you think this is the best timming to buy?
I am confident the market will recover soon - but it will take some time. The market has lost a lot of confidence lately which has made the sentiment negative - but I think this is only a temporary condition before the market recovers.

Without any real expert analysis - I think everyone can buy now with DCA strategy. The price is getting closer to $80K which was previously considered a strong support - but today a 5% drop in price makes many people start to doubt.

If you know what you are doing, you can make your decision on time to buy cryptocurrency because every bull run will continue bringing opportunity for those that hodl cryptocurrency to the current bull run to earn massive profits. Not for those that have the knowledge of cryptocurrency already because they know that bear market is the best opportunity for those investors that want to buy cryptocurrency, and anything that will make them to miss this bear market, it will make such people not to be happy.

You can start earning on time in cryptocurrency and still remain earning for long, make sure you always buy your cryptocurrency in the bear run and sell in the bull run which is the simple method to make it reality.

The good thing about bitcoin investment is that you can buy as little as you have; nobody will question you about that or suggest you buy one BTC before you make a profit. The profits you make will depend on the amount you invested when the price of Bitcoin goes above the amount you bought Bitcoin. You can sell off your profits at any time you choose or buy additional Bitcoin for more gains in the future. Many crypto investors prefer buying through DCA means, to hodl for long term

Only in this way an investor does not have the thought of whether it is too early to buy bitcoin or even too late to buy BTC. With DCA we can have a more comfortable mindset to save regularly and no matter what the current price of bitcoin, they will continue to buy until they reach the specified limit. 8)

From my point of views in cryptocurrency investment, for me it's good for someone who wants to venture into cryptocurrency investment to at first understand the difference between altcoins and Bitcoin, probably Bitcoin gives rise to cryptocurrency investment, so I know very well that in cryptocurrency, what we need to understand for the cryptocurrency investment is that, Bitcoin is easily to increase whereas not all altcoins that survive, so if you want to go into altcoins investment, you have to know that it might die off or be out of cryptocurrency market at any time

So, the reason why most people invest in Bitcoin, it's because Bitcoin has a potential more than other coins....so I will advice anyone who's want to go into cryptocurrency investment should go directly to invest on Bitcoin, because it has the potential to resist manipulation, and it can gain back potential when it falls at any point in time.

Yes, of course, even though Bitcoin is a volatile market coin, it will not leave the market. No matter how much we are afraid, Bitcoin can definitely hold its own. But no one can guarantee when other cryptocurrencies or shitcoins are in the market and when they leave the market. However, if someone invests in shitcoins, he may own a lot of money in a very short time. For such a thing, you either have to be a very big trader or you have to be very lucky.

So in my opinion, investing in cryptocurrency is much easier. But maintaining that investment is difficult.

Considering the risk first before investing makes everything complicated for a newbie investor, why should an early investor bother about the risk except you’re not ready for a long term journey. Bitcoin is a risky investment to be sincere before investing you should make some calculations but, what I’m trying to point out don’t get distracted with the market trend which might lead to your actual loss as an investor, at this point buying bitcoin now is safe. Most people call it a big season yet refusing to buy rather you insist on waiting is all wrong besides wait for the dip or what? I will always advise never go all in of course I can relate with op point like buying using such huge amount as a newbie is not an option rather the dca is always available.

The world is heading in such a direction that no matter what price you buy at, purchasing Bitcoin will be to your advantage. There is no longer a country with a strong economy, no threat of war and no corrupt politicians. Every part of the world faces some kind of risk for different reasons.
In such an environment, the most logical choice for people to protect their money and investments is Bitcoin. I can't say the same for altcoins, as they are highly susceptible to manipulation. Perhaps a small portfolio with a few major altcoins can be created but the primary investment should be in Bitcoin.

Over time, people's mindsets will change with the times. At present we may not be able to force everyone to invest in bitcoin with their money, but over time the number of bitcoin investors will increase rapidly. Currently, many influencers are talking about bitcoin as the most profitable future asset, but there are still some who reject it and are even willing to badmouth bitcoin for various reasons. In the future, we might get them investing in bitcoin, but not now.

So you asked this when btc was over 100k.

So yeah buying on feb 23 is not as good as buying on March 23.

In fact just about every day after the 23rd or 24th of February btc has been under that price

There is a dirty trick that some people have succeeded in doing, which is buying shitcoin and then selling it when there is a profit to buy bitcoin again, however bitcoin is the only asset that is most worthy of being held, the rest in the crypto market are just alternative assets that have the risk of being lost at any time.

It is true what you said that maintaining an investment is not an easy matter, but if you have stable money, good knowledge and full confidence in what you are investing in (we are discussing bitcoin) then there is nothing for you to worry about, you only need to do it consistently.

Many newbie investors are actually still trapped by deception, they think they are investing but in fact they are gambling, this must also be avoided.

We can't and we shouldn't force anyone to do anything. Don't go around telling people to buy Bitcoin. That's a decision they must make for themselves. However, many people who feel hopeless about national and global economic conditions stay away from Bitcoin simply because they don't truly know what it is. Showing them the truth is the greatest favor we can do for them. Right now, people in my country are deeply worried about what to do next. I'm trying to explain to as many people as possible that Bitcoin can be a way out.

Its never too late or early to buy, the price is lower after all so how could the buy be worse at a lower price is a fair question to ask.  The real balanced question would involve your selling also, without before its hard to say.   Too many people want to sell early which is where the problem develops, that is a large part of why the price would fall in the first place.  

Speculatively the DXY has been rising recently when ideally you want a trend of its constant decline and the best gain would come after it loses 100 when its 104 now so that scenario is not going to be occurring till summer most likely.

There's no such thing about being late, people do usually be having these kind of regrets at the end when they do have that kind of thinking that they will really be that able to buy up more when the market do make out some dumps on which this isnt really that a bad idea, it is really just that when you do have this kind of mentality then you would really be ending up on missing up opportunities once the market do leave you out. If you are doing some short term approach then it will really be that ideal that you should really know on what you are really that indeed doing rather than on making up some random buys or decisions on which it will be leading up with those non good results. Somehow dealing up with this space is really that not easy because of being unpredictable but once you do have that kind of idea then you will be having that advantage.

Its too early to buy? This kind of mentality will really be having that tons of mistakes that they will really be able to encounter on which this will really be that resulting into those regrets because you've been that always thinking that the current price are already high and thats what makes you hinder on taking up such action or taking up such move in regarding into crypto investment. If you are really that wanting to have that advantage then you should really be that sensible and be wary about these opportunities.

i think from the way the question was asked and what it was trying to say, i think that the purchase will be long term.

i've been holding bitcoin for a while and it's lost some value on average, but i don't really care.

if you look at a 6 or 12 month candlestick chart of bitcoin you will see what i mean. and probably if you hold bitcoin for a few years it will always gain value against the usd in the end.

if you're thinking of putting all your savings into bitcoin, i think you can wait a little bit longer. you can try to buy low. but if you have bitcoin, i don't recommend selling it right now.

Crypto currency if examined with risk is risky, but for me if we want to invest, just do it, there is no early if we want to invest or trade in the crypto market.

We understand the current market situation if speculation there is a good opportunity in a certain period of time, if you think about any risk is difficult to do, we are working in the crypto market we must be reckless and the automatic commitment results are also committed.

You have the opportunity to see the price of Bitcoin $ 300k in the future so it's not too early to buy, my speculation is the price of Bitcoin continues to increase until it touches the price that is not approximately.

Don't misunderstand the investment because investing in shitcoin is actually much riskier because you can also lose your own investment capital if the good moment for shitcoin is over in the market. I do not deny that some people have indeed made a profit from trading in shitcoin, but only a small number of people have experienced something like that. Meanwhile, investors who continue to rely on their investments in Bitcoin will not experience this if their investment itself is not for the short term and I think it will not be difficult enough to maintain investments in Bitcoin more consistently as long as we have a clearer income foundation in this life.

There are some shitcoins that look like decent coins for a short burst of times and some people fall for those during that time. No shitcoin shows itself to be a shitcoin at 100% of the time, if people got interested for a while, that means it looked and acted like it is not a shitcoin during that time. Then of course it turns out that it was a shitcoin, and then we end up with a huge loss because we were fooled to think/believe it was a decent coin, but then we realize we were fooled and it was actually a shitcoin.

We can get away with this if we are smart enough, but not many people are ready for it and that is the problem. Falling for a shitcoin is common, and almost every single crypto investor has done it before.

The risk levels of cryptocurrency is still high even if everyone is investing in doesn't makes cryptocurrency investment to be risk free, the chances of losing one's money is still there . To me there is no time that isn't right for one to buy bitcoin as long the discretionary income is there and one doesn't need a huge or large amount for to start accumulating cryptocurrency,it is possible to start with relatively low amount using the dca strategy and then front load whenever the additional cashes arises.
